“Ghana Was Not Painted Black” – Spanish Ambassador

Former President John Mahama came under a heavy bashing after he met with diplomats and showed them videos of the assault on citizens at the Ayawaso By-election which was won by the ruling New Patriotic Party.

“This is unpatriotic and shameful. It is because if he gathered Ghanaians, call it the academia or Ghanaian professionals or Ghanaian businessmen and he talked about matters of concern to him, I’ll have no problem. He’s a former head of state and then for a very important opinion leader but to gather foreigners and try to paint Ghana black is just not acceptable,” Senior Minister Yaw Osafo Marfo said of the former president’s actions.
